HandBrake is managed by a very small team of contributors and as such, we do not have the resources to support translations for every language that may be requested and keep all the user interfaces in sync. As such, we welcome anyone who is willing to help by submitting pull requests to keep the user interface language files in sync with the translations available on [Transifex](https://www.transifex.com/HandBrakeProject/public/).

## Viewing Updated Translations
After a pull request including the latest changes imported from Transifex is accepted and merged, you can view the updated translations in our development snapshot builds.( https://github.com/HandBrake/HandBrake-snapshots )
For macOS and Windows, these are typically published twice weekly.
Linux builds are currently published on an ad-hoc basis but will usually be pushed after a translation update.
## HandBrake Release Policy (String Freeze)
Due to the small and volunteer nature of the team, it's difficult to plan our releases with precision. However, we will typically try to provide 2 to 4 weeks notice via a post on Transifex when we think there may be a new HandBrake release coming.
During this time, we will try and avoid making any string changes as much as possible. We may have to do so in the case of bugs however we are generally trying to avoid refactoring / new features during this time.
